After 4 1/2 years, I ceased daily posting to this website. However, I am sending to some people via email my research into the news. If you wish to be included, just let me know by making a comment below. I will not be posting every day as I did before.

Barney Bishop, the former Executive Director of the Florida
Democratic Party, has written an article detailing why he can not
support Barack Obama over Mitt Romney. Bishop had this to say on the
president’s policies in an op-ed posted at sunshinestatenews.com:

In every challenge that faces our nation, Obama sees a
solution that can only come with another government-spending program. He
fails to harness the ingenuity of entrepreneurs; instead he actually
places obstacles, like burdensome regulation, in front of their path to
progress.

Bishop, a local businessman, criticizes Obama’s attacks on Romney’s
business record and defends Romney’s plan to revitalize the economy:
Specifically, the attacks on the work Mitt Romney did in
private equity demonstrates a dangerous lack of understanding how
important risk-taking investors are in the U.S. economy. … http://freebeacon.com/fla-dem-abandons-obama/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Did Mitt Romney and Bain Capital help office-supply retailer Staples
create 88,000 jobs? 43,000? 252? Actually, Staples probably destroyed
100,000 jobs while creating millions of new ones.
Since 1986, Staples has opened 2,000 stores, eliminating the jobs of
distributors and brokers who charged nasty markups for paper and office
supplies. But it enabled hundreds of thousands of small (and not so
small) businesses to stock themselves cheaply and conveniently and
expand their operations.
It's the same story elsewhere. Apple employs just 47,000 people, and
Google under 25,000. Like Staples, they have destroyed many old jobs,
like making paper maps and pink "While You Were Out" notepads. But by
lowering the cost of doing business they've enabled innumerable
entrepreneurs to start new businesses and employ hundreds of thousands,
even millions, of workers world-wide—all while capital gets redeployed
more effectively. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303740704577527200796292034.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Local officials in San Bernardino County, Calif., met last week to consider a controversial proposal to use eminent domain powers to seize and refinance underwater mortgages.
The plan, which is being championed by wealthy investors with deep ties to the Democratic Party, has drawn criticism from opponents who see it as an egregious violation of property rights and an exercise in political cronyism.
“This is a group of folks who want to come in and use the government
to help acquire properties for them and provide an impressive return on
their investment,” said Steven Greenhut, a senior fellow at the Pacific
Research Institute, a free-market think tank.
The new authority would apply eminent domain power, which allows
governments to forcibly acquire private property for public benefit.
However, rather than seizing the physical properties in this case, the
authority effectively would be purchasing the mortgages owed by the
property owners, with the aim of restructuring them and selling them to
investors who could then turn a profit by flipping the homes. http://freebeacon.com/democratic-domain/
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The following is a joint news release issued by the Michigan and Ohio Departments of Natural Resources:

Federal
and state wildlife officials working in conjunction with academic
researchers today announced six water samples taken from Sandusky and
north Maumee bays tested positive for the presence of Asian carp
environmental DNA in Michigan and Ohio waters.

The
positive samples were among 417 taken from Lake Erie in August 2011,
and more than 2,000 samples taken from the Great Lakes Basin since 2010.
The Lake Erie batch was recently analyzed and test results were
confirmed by eDNA researchers this week. The six positive samples
represent less than 1.5 percent of the Lake Erie samples.

Four
samples from Sandusky Bay, in Ohio waters, tested positive for bighead
carp eDNA, while two samples from north Maumee Bay, in Michigan waters,
were positive for silver carp eDNA.

In
response to these findings, electro-shocking and netting began Friday
in Sandusky Bay with no evidence of Asian carp found. However,
additional testing and monitoring are planned by the Ohio and Michigan
Departments of Natural Resources in conjunction with partner agencies.

The
findings indicate the presence of genetic material left behind by the
species, such as scales, excrement or mucous, but not the establishment
of Asian carp in Lake Erie. Positive eDNA tests are regarded by the
scientific community as an indicator of the species’ recent presence,
however, positive results can occur whether the organism was alive or
dead.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[CONGRATULATIONS, REPUBLICANS!!!!!] The Law of the Sea Treaty now has 34 senators opposed and thus will not have the Senate votes for ratification, a key opponent of the treaty announced Monday.
Critics
of the treaty had argued that LOST would require the U.S. to subject
its sovereignty to an international body, require U.S. businesses to pay
royalties for resource exploitation, and subject the U.S. to unwieldy
environmental regulations as defined in the treaty. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/jul/16/demint-says-law-sea-treaty-now-dead/

And it’s happening again.
Another of the President’s proposals will not be accepted by Senate
Democrats. Two weeks ago, President Obama laid out his tax “plan” that
would hike taxes on those making more than $250,000 a year – his
definition of rich. He also, in his FY2013 budget, proposed hiking the
tax rate on dividends, which is the money paid out to investors when a
company does well.Despite reports to the contrary, Senate
Democrats have their own plan and will not introduce the plan being
touted by the President and left-leaning pundits. Instead, their plan
sets the top tax rate for dividends at 23.8%, nearly 20 percentage points lower than what President Obama sought,
though a substantial increase from the current rate of 15%. The Senate
plan also includes a top estate tax rate of 45% and a one-year
alternative minimum tax (AMT) patch to prevent the tax from crushing
middle-class families. And yes, they do include the tax hike on those
making over $250,000 a year. http://heritageaction.com/2012/07/another-obama-plan-receives-no-democrat-support/

Medicare Monthly fee more than doubling by 2014 because of Obamacare.

Maryland’s governor Martin O’Malley, chairman of the Democratic Governors Association,
was caught posting false data to his state’s website this week in
response to a story about the wealthy fleeing Maryland to escape the
state’s rising taxes. The Examiner posted the story on July 7, 2012:

Obama, as a campaign stop in Virginia, said in no particular order:

1) We used to have the best stuff, used to be the best in the world.

2) China has invested so much in their infrastructure and now their ports, trains, schools and airports are all vastly superior to ours.

3) If you are thinking of starting a business, Bejing looks like a pretty good option.

Of course, he leaves out the fact that China is highly polluted (I can personally attest to that), they force children by the millions into child labor, their are scant civil rights and they do not attempt at all to prevent environmental damage.

The District of Columbia’s Republican Committee has named first-term MI U.S. Rep. Justin Amash as one of party’s most influential 35 people under the age of 35.
Amash, 32, of Cascade Township, was honored for serving “as a leading
advocate for government restraint” and maintaining a perfect roll call
voting record during his freshman year. http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2012/07/justin_amash_among_most_influe.html
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Under pressure from Republican senators over its upcoming conference in Hawaii, the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco has canceled next year's scheduled meeting in Monterey, citing budget constraints.
The
court, which covers California and eight other Western states, has held
annual meetings of judges, lawyers and staff since 1944, with three of
the past 10 meetings in Hawaii. Long a target of Republican criticism
for its liberal rulings, the court has come under attack from Sens. Charles Grassley of Iowa and Jeff Sessions of Alabama for scheduling next month's conference in Maui.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------An American Navy ship fired on a boat in the Persian Gulf [yesterday], killing
one person and injuring three others aboard the craft, U.S. naval
officials told ABC News.
Lt. Greg Raelson, a spokesperson for the Navy's 5th Fleet, which is
based in nearby Bahrain, said that a security team aboard the oil supply
ship U.S.N.S. Rappahannock fired a .50 caliber machine gun at a "small
motor vessel after it disregarded warnings and rapidly approached the
U.S. ship" off the coast of Jebel Ali, a city approximately 30 miles
from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/us-navy-fires-ship-persian-gulf-dead/story?id=16787035#.UASeQ_WWiCk
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Department of Homeland Security officials (DHS) rejected an official
request for information about illegal immigrants arrested and deported
in California, citing the privacy rights of the deportees, even though
that information would be publicly available if the criminals were
American citizens. http://washingtonexaminer.com/issa-dhs-gives-criminal-illegal-aliens-privacy-rights-even-americans-dont-have/article/2502248

About Me

I began this blog when my local liberal newspaper (in a Republican district) not only refused to print any of the negatives about Barack Obama, but then refused to run my letter to the editor entitled Ten Reasons Not To Vote For Obama! I realized it's time to do something more than fume about it! I hope you learn some things your paper is not teaching you....
